Canadian companies sold $18.9 million of military goods to Israel in 2024.
Newly released data from Global Affairs Canada (GAC) has confirmed that Canadian companies continued to ship military goods to Israel last year despite the Liberal government’s pause on new export permits.
According to GAC’s annual report on military exports, Canadian companies sold $18.9 million of military goods to Israel in 2024.
In total, 164 export permits were used by Canadian companies to ship military goods to Israel, making it the third-most popular non-U.S. destination for Canadian suppliers last year.
The majority of the goods, $12.5 million worth, related to an export category that includes “electronic equipment,” and a further $2.2 million fell under a category that includes “bombs, torpedoes, rockets, missiles, other explosive devices and charges and related equipment and accessories.”
$2.8 million worth of goods fell under a category that includes aircraft and aerial drones, and lesser amounts concerned fire control and warning equipment, ground vehicles, naval vessels, imaging equipment, military forgings, and technology.
GAC did not disclose further details about the goods, including the names of the manufacturers that sold them. (more...)
